well as long as you can dance, sing AND cry about your childhood, then you CAN'T be talked about in negative terms with your (at best) inappropriate intimate relationships with minors. Guess I need to book some studio time.

I really have to give you props for putting such a good list together that is not only the truth yet funny as hell of why there will NEVER be a Michael Jackson. I totally agree 100%. I especially cracked up at the Juelz .gif and that Mad TV .gif under Rihanna's name. And you know what, I've actually seen many crazy stans of Beyonce, Chris Brown and Rhanna in particular think they stand a chance at impacting generations of people musically the way Michael has. Please! Ain't no way hell! This list needs to be passed around so those delusional morons will get a clue.

I didn't realize how hard you're swinging from Usher's jock. The closest to Michael…bwahahahahaha!

Agreed! Yeah, I've looked at that performance like 20x on Youtube. I love when he uses Janet's clip, "You know you want me!" Get it, Michael!

There will never be another Michael Jackson. PERIOD. He was so much more than an entertainer. He was a humanitarian, comedian, artist, the list goes on and on. The music industry is becoming more and more about who can sell the most records and who can be "different" enough to stand out *STRONGLY side-eyeing Rih, Bey, Lady Gaga, Keri Hilson and a bunch of other folk*. Michael did those things without even trying hard. His music, words, videos would be presented to us, as if saying "I love this. I hope you do too." and we would immediately fall under his spell. He was incredible, in every sense of the word. Losing him is like losing a family member.

Wonderful post.

Once again, you've summed up all of my sentiments exactly. I can only add the following:

1) MJ was an amazing visionary who also graciously gave credit to his collaborators and influences.I've never heard any legit claims of him being a biter or taking cred. for someone else's concepts.

2) He was totally believable whether he was opining for a lost love or telling us how bad he was.

3) He was able to move between modern, jazz, and street dancing with ease and precision.

Sorry for being so wordy, but there is no parallel.

There isn't any singer out today that could match the talent, charm and dance skill of Michael Jackson. That man was magic! Who else shuts EVERYTHING DOWN when they release a new, ORIGINAL, video on network tv that has EVERYONE talking about it the next day like Mike did?! Go ahead, I'll wait…
